This is Week Six for Medieval Monday's theme of First Encounters. And today I'm happy to welcome my friend Jenna Jaxon with a tantalizing glimpse of BETROTHAL.

EXCERPT:

Mere seconds before she learned
her fate. She could scarce affect an indifferent pose before the court when
inside every inch of her quivered with anticipation of the name. His name, pray God, on the king’s lips.

Lady
Alyse de Courcy has fallen in love with Lord Braeton, a nobleman in King Edward
III’s court and a man to whom she has barely spoken. Fate, however, has decreed
her betrothal to his best friend, Sir Geoffrey Longford—a handsome and imposing
knight, yet hardly the man she wants to wed.

When
Sir Geoffrey is bound in betrothal by his father, he could not have expected
the beautiful stranger to win his heart the moment they meet. But Alyse’s
infatuation with his friend casts doubt on whether she can ever return his
regard and their wedding day is fast approaching…Will he have time enough to win her love?
